Israel Police on Thursday clashed with protesters commemorating 1,000 days since the October 7 massacre outside the Knesset.

Protesters told Ynet that police were attempting to disperse them violently.

Israelis across the country commemorated the day with a moment of silence at 6:29 a.m. and protests at several junctions.

Yellow-clad protestors holding flags and signs in commemoration of the attacks blocked traffic at the Karkur Junction near Haifa.

'1,000 days. We won't forget, and we won't forgive'

"1,000 days. We won't forget, and we won't forgive," read one sign.

A similar group stood at the Kabri Junction in the Galilee.

There, some protestors demanded a National Commission of Inquiry into the events of October 7, a call that has been rejected by the right-wing government since the attack.

"1,000 days of burying the truth," read a banner held by two protestors.

Protesters have also gathered around the homes of prominent Knesset members, including Education Minister Yoav Kish in Hod Hasharon and Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana in Tel Aviv.

Protesters outside Ohana's home condemned Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after remarks he made in an interview with Channel 14, in which he joked that all that's changed for him since October 7 was losing a little weight.

Another group of protestors arranged for a "wake up call" at the home of Culture and Sports Minister, MIki Zohar, at 7:10 a.m.
